Narrative Structure

Narrative Structure

Our film opening is about a lead gangster named Tom, he has an female partner who acts as an assistant who does his 'dirty work' e.g: murders. She is called Courtney, who wears a lot of red e.g: lipstick and nails. This links to our film tile 'Rouge'. Within the film opening, we meet Tom, Courtney, and one of Tom's workers - Will. Will is given a task prior to the start of the film (audience will be able to tell this) and fails this task, leading to him asking for more time to finish the deal. Tom lets Will believe that he has an extra day to seal the deal with the buyer, but instead sends Courtney out not long after to murder him with a gun. 

Our opening will be using a circular narrative. Therefore we are starting the film opening with the murder of Will. To show this we are going to put a black and white effect on the footage, to show it isn't in the present time. My group chose to do circular narrative as we admired the use of effects to create a 'flashback' like scene, and we thought we could execute it well.
